Groun in
instructions
Oven MUST be grounded. Grounding reduces risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current if an electrical short occurs. This oven is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded. See installation Instructions.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. if the product power cord
is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot
receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate
60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown in
specifications table. When the oven is on a circuit with
other equipment, an increase in cooking times may be
required and fuses can be blown.
Microwave operates on standard household current, 110-
120V.

Operating Instructions
SENSOR OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook
most of your favorite foods without
selecting cooking times and power
levels. The display will indicate the
sensing period by scrolling the name
of the food. The oven automatically
determines required cooking time for
each food item. When the internal
sensor detects a certain amount
of humidity coming from the food, it
will tell the oven how much longer
to cook. The display will show the
remaining heating time.
For best results when cooking
by Sensor, follow these
recommendations:
1. Food cooked with the sensor
system should be at normal
storage temperature.
2. Glass turntable and outside of
container should be dry to assure
best cooking results.
3. Most foods should always be
covered loosely with microwavable
plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.
4. Do not open the door or touch
the STOP/CLEAR pad during the
sensing time. When sensing time
is over, the oven beeps and the
remaining cooking time will appear
in the display window. At this time
you can open the door to stir, turn,
or rearrange the food.
IMPORTANT:
When using sensor cook, the oven
must cool for 5 minutes between
uses or food will not cook properly.

GUIDE
Appropriate containers and coverings

results.
covers. They can prevent steam
from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
3. Match the amount to the size of the
container. Fill containers at least
half full for best results.
4. Be sure the outside of the cooking
container and the inside of the
microwave oven are dry before
placing food in the oven. Beads of
moisture turning into steam can
mislead the sensor.
NOTE:
If food is not thoroughly cooked or
reheated when using the sensor
feature, complete using a power
level and cooking time. DO NOT
continue using the sensor pad.
ADDING OR
SUBTRACTING

By using the More(9) or Less(l) pad
all of the sensor cook and time cook
settings can be adjusted to cook food
for a longer or shorter time.

DEFROSTTIPS
, When usingAUTO DEFROST,the
weight to be entered isthe netweight in
pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight
ofthe food minus the container).
, Use AUTO DEFROSTonly for raw
food.AUTO DEFROST gives best
results when foodto be thawed isa
minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a
true freezer). If food has been stored
in a refrigerator-freezer that does not
maintain a temperature of 5°For below,
alwaysprogram a lowerfood weight (for
a shorter defrosting time) to prevent
cooking the food.
, If the food is stored outside the freezer
for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food
weight.
,,Theshape of the package alters the
defrostingtime. Shallow rectangular
packets defrost more quicklythan a
deep block.
, Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
Separated pieces defrost more easily.
, Shield areas of food with small pieces of
foil if they start to become warm.
, Youcan usesmall pieces of ah-minum
foilto shield foods like chickenwings, leg
tips, and fish tails, butthe foilmust not
touch the side of theoven. Foilcauses
arcing, which can damage the oven
lining.
